The ,pivot .pin 4.! passesthrough openings in the neck 48 so that the head is pivoted to the bodyfor oscillation. Attached .to the inner side of the front of the body,as by rivet 49 :is a leaf spring 53,, which contacts the underside orthe rear of the neck A8 and tends .to tilt the head forwardly \or in aclockwise -.direction .looking at Fig. .1 of the drawing, to keep thehead .in upright position. The front .of the neck contacts the frontedge 52 of the neck opening to limit movement .of the head to upright.position.

The right .arm simulating portion .1 .1 .may fixed to the body in anysuitable manner. :It comprises a hollow metal :shell WhifihiiS inclineddownwardly and forwardly. The .body :is termed with an opening .54addacent the lower end of member 47. Iihe lower end of member $11 isopen. .Said member H has :an outer wall Illa,whichcarries-adiacentitsxlowertendxadownwardly and forwardly inclinedpivot min :55, .10- cated in a vertical plane parallel -.to1the..f1tontor rear legs of the'tabl :42. -Member -.I-! sis formed with-a slot ll'bto permitiorearmrmember lfl'to swing upwardly. The forearm tmemberutB roomprises 1a hollow :tube having extension ';5.6"..pivote.d :to thepivot pin 55, therarrangementfbeing such that as the -.forearmsimulating 'member swings upwardly, its "forward :end will move upwardlyand toward the vertical mid section of the body 'to 'a 'proint'in frontof :the mouth 15a of the'head Extending from the forward end hi the."foreaiu'n:simulating inember IBis a hand simulat- -ing membertiflpwhich is iixedto theglass simulating member in anysuita'ble manner.The member ilii is made ofitransparent' material, such as glas'sforsyntheticplas'ti'cs.

The body I5 carries at the neck, .a transccover 32ml which may be fittedthereon in any suitable manner, such as by friction, and is formedwithan opening 59 located adjacent the front of the rim of said cover. Theband simulating member 51 may be pressed around the lower end of theglass. Said glass 20 is furthermore formed with an opening 60 adjacentits lower end communicating with the interior of the hollowhandsiumilating member 51.

Means are proyided to support the glass 20 when the glass is in itslowermost position as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing. To this end, thereis piloted to the pin 35, a lever 5 I. Pivoted to an intermediateportion of the lever 6| as at 62, is a rod 63, passing upwardly throughthe opening 533 .in the table top. Supported at the upper end of the rod63 and above the table top, "is a disc '64 on which the glass 20 mayrest when said glass is in its lowermost position, as shown in Fig. 1.Attached to the underside of the table .in any suitable .manner is oneendof a leaf spring 66 .contactmg the underside -.of the lever 6.] andbiasing .saidlever upwardly toswing ina saunter- .clo,clcwise.di-rectionlooking .at Fig. 2 of thedraw ing.

When the glass comes .down itsweight will depress the lever .81 against tension .of spring 55, therebylowering said lever to theposition ofFig. 2.

Pivoted to the outer .end of lever .61, as .at .68 is a vertical rod 69.It will be noted that the lever BI is inclined downwardly and rearwardlThe rodfia passes upwardly-through .theapening 32 in the table top 30,Star the purpose herein after-appearing.

Mounted .on the table top 3.9 is a Ueshaued bracket 16 having a pair ofupwardly ex-tendin arms H. The :arms 1.! are locatedin a nautical planeinclined rearwardly and .outwerdly. Hinged to the unperends of he armsLl as 'on nivot ,pins 1.2., :is .a milk .bottle simulating :mem- 'ber22.

The-same comprises a torsion-:springzflfi, *the outer end 01? whichis at tached toithe :rear wall*82, as at-8 1. The inner end of thespring is fixed as at 88, -to a winding :stem -or shaft 89. The stem '89passes through an opening in -the body'and is provided with .-'a handle91. Fixed on shaft' 89'is a-pawl-92 having a' pa'ir of-spring fingers93' the ends of "which proJect toward and press against a face of a.

pinion 95 rotatable on shaft 89. Said pinion 96 has an annular series ofspaced holes 95 engageable by fingers 93. Said pinion 96 meshes with apinion 91 mounted for rotation on the frame. Pinion 91 rotates anotherpinion 98 journalled in the frame, which in turn meshes with the pinion99 fixed to a crank shaft I parallel to the shaft 89 and journalled inthe frame. Journalled in the frame is a pinion I00a meshing with pinion00. Fixed for rotation with'said pinion I00a is an eccentric weightedmember I00b serving as a governor in the well known manner to regulatethe speed.

It will be noted that when the spring is wound by turning the windingshaft 89, the gear train does not rotate as the fingers 93 merely clickover the holes 95. However, when the shaft 89 is released, the fingers93 will engage the holes 95 and rotate the gear train for rotating thecrank shaft I00.

Fixed to the crank shaft I00 is a cam member IOI having a pair ofoppositely disposed cams I02. The crank shaft I00'is formed with anoffset arm Il3 formed with a finger I04 connected by link I06 to a pivotI01 on the forearm l9 and above the pivot pin 55. 7

It will now be understood that as the crank shaft I00 rotates, forearmI9 will be caused to oscillate up and-down about the pivot pin 55, andthe glass will-be brought back and forth from the disc 64 to themouth ofthe head.

Connected to the opening 89 in the glass 20 is one end of a rubber orresilient hose or tube IIO which passes through the hand simulatingmember through the forearm simulating member I 9 and through the opening54 and is wound several times around the frame 90 and within the bodyI5.

The tube extends to a position above the cover of the glass when saidglass is in down position. It extends to a height which provides aninternal volume equal to the glass volume as shown in Fig. 1 so thatwhen the glass is lifted, all-of the liquid in the glass may pass to andbe wholly contained in said tube. The tube may be attached within thebody by anysuitable brackets or clips and its upper end is open.

Attached to the rear wall. 82 of the frame 80, as at H2 is one end of aspring I I3. The spring ,II3 has an offset downwardly curved arm II4which is disposed above .a portion of the tube I I0, adjacent theopening 54. Furthermore, the curved portion I [4 of the spring isdisposed above the cam arms i 02. as the crank shaft rotates, thecrankarms or cams I02 will alternately contact .the underside of springportion II4 to successively raise the same. As each crank arm passesbeyond saidpore The arrangement is such that spring Il3, such portion H4is pressing the tube a against the platform 83a to constrict and closethe tubeagainst the-passage of liquid therethrough. However, when eithercam I02 engages spring-portion II4, the spring is raised and the tube isopened.

arm I9'together with the glass 20 are lifted and lowered, andalso thetwo cams I02 successively ,lift spring H3, so that the tube is releasedtwice.

H3 is lifted when the arm I9 is approaching its 7 It will thus be seenthat for each revolution of the crank shaft I00, the fore- -The cam pinsI02 are so arranged that the spring 4 initial filled up level of theglass.

, 6 lowermost'position and when said arm is approaching its uppermostposition. I

As stated above, the arm I8 may be fixed to the body in any suitablemanner. It is hollow or in the formof a tube. It is open at its frontend as designated by numeral I20. Adjacent the open end I20 is anannular outwardly extending bead I 2|. Rotatably mounted on arm I8 is ahand simulating member I23 which has a hollow rear tubular end I24rotatably received within the front open end of arm I8. Said portion I24may be formed with an outwardly extending annular bead I25 receivedwithin the bead I2I. Thus, member I23 may rotate about the axis of thefront end of arm I8. The hand simulating member I23 is fixed to the milkbottle simulating member 22 so as to rotate therewith. The axis of thefront end of arm IBand the rear end of hand simulating member I23 is theaxis of the pivot pins I2 of the U-shaped brackets 10,'whereby to permitswinging of the bottle 13 as described hereinabove.

The operation of the device will now be described. When the toy" ispurchased, the glass 20 is filled with milk by removing the cover 20a.The cover is then replaced. The milk will also go into tube H0 and upits coil until it reaches a height in the tube equal to the height ofthe glass. It will be noted that the glass must be filled in the downposition of the glass as at that point the spring II3 will be moved offthe tube by a cam pin I02. and the passage through the tube is open.When the spring motor is wound and then permitted to unwind, the crankshaft I00 will rotate and through link I06 will cause arm I9 to swingupwardly. The arm is inclined at an angle which will cause the glass tomove to the mouth I6a in the head I6. As the arm starts to move up, campin I02 which has engaged spring portion I I4 passes beyond said springand the spring jumps back to shut off the tube H0. The milk in the glassand the tube up to the shut off point will remain there and cannot flowout of the hole 59 in the cover 20a of the glass. When the glass reachesthe mouth it will push the head I 6 back against the spring 50.

At the same time, the. next cam pin I02 will engage spring. portion II4lifting. it and opening the tube H0. Thisv tube, it will be recollected.is coiled inside the body to a height above the When the tube is nowopen, the milk will drain out of the glass into the coiled tube due. tothe fact that the glass is now at a higher level, and the lower.-

ing of the level of the milk in the glass will give the appearance ofthe milk being drunk through the mouth ofthe toy figure. By the time thehand starts its downward stroke, the glass is emptied and it appearedthat the child drank the contents thereof.

As said arm starts to return downwardly, cam I02 rotates past the springH3, and the tube is again sealed off, and the milk cannot return to theglass therefrom, even when the glass moves below the level of the coil.Whentheglass approaches its bottommost position, however, the next. campin I02 raises the spring II3, opens tube H0 and milk will then flowfrom the tube back into the glass. At the bottom of the stroke, theglass comes down on disc 64 and the lever GI down against spring 66causing the milk bottle to swing. downward. It therefore appears thatthe milk returning to the glass 20 is flowing from the bottle.

This cycle is repeated with the glass emptying wes? mi ht be suede i t eem eeiment sleev feet wit i i to he ueee teee h t ell .ieeiie; he e.- nset ee ie e .ehewn e the eeee e en ine sir-ew e se is e b in e p e d es.i lliee et v en see .iee lim tin se se- .He yine hee si eer b n i v nte, elem; new an eee z l e e eiee e ee eese P e A toy eemetiein' e beeetbl 1 m mbe we ba e ehei eimeletie me sai ee end n ee e h ie...,e leimembe e m fi u e ee er, g e be y., ;n u1 we member eei den ih eeen emme. her; a head pivoted on said body, simula in mem er ivetee e fihe.ieeii e ever t eep e t e tee e. bee e .s e e .h le by the er rm w t int bod sn etinememee ac seemed t e Ietet e b spr n m r reed .e link imeei ee the sheet with t e 'eexm l iine membe whe b et ee e .eeid emitwil e. member heu e el e x n eiiee th new mm .e eewn e'eeitiee e1 the fble me tlee e iii; gl ii n .ei t leeee, nerm l .epenee .we th hee s n ain thxeueh the e eerxe tee' o s he ten 9.? he ,e eee ave .meen
